On a nice summer day we cycled through the Gorges de la Bourne, where there was dense traffic, and turned right onto the road to Col de la Romeyère. The relative peace was wonderful in a still very beautiful landscape. The ascent to the pass is not a big effort. There are only 406 elevation meters, which are not really steep. The beginning is the hardest part with a steepest kilometer of 8.0%.
